I spent some time at Verizon this morning helping a client port her number from a T-Mobile Android to a Verizon iPhone. The real fun began when we couldn’t transfer 2,400 contacts off the Droid’s SIM card. Needless to say, I wish we had the ConXfer App!

ConXfer is a patent pending wireless, mobile to mobile secure contacts transfer application. It simplifies the process of securely transferring a user’s contact and mobile business cards from one device to another using WiFi or Bluetooth.

Mental picture: ConXfer lets you securely transfer the contact lists from one mobile device to another using Wifi or Bluetooth!

ConXfer also makes physical business cards a thing of the past. The password-protected app allows you to eliminate the printing and costs of physical business cards by letting you wirelessly transmit your own electronic business card from your mobile device to another user in your vicinity.

Aferdita Muriqi, Founder and CEO of the ADEV LAB & STUDIO (@adevLab), developed ConXFer via her innovative mobile development company. Aferdita is a tech industry leader with over 17 years experience in a variety of Senior Software Engineering and VP of Engineering positions. She’s specialized in software product analysis, design and development and has extensive experience in internet, ecommerce, social networking and custom mobile applications.

As data becomes increasingly digital, are Business Cards becoming obsolete? With the entire hullabaloo (and yes, I’ve been anxiously waiting to use that word on SheBytes for months now!), about the digitization of the business card, and the possibility of About.me making the traditional business card obsolete, I found it an apt opportunity to lend some of my input.

Whether the business card will actually no longer be relevant, in the future is impossible to say, but I am certain that business cards are still integral in the professional community today.

So when I ran into a great infographic on Business Cards Online, I just had to borrow some of their creative and incredibly insightful images

Despite the growing involvement and reliance upon social media, it is crucial in the corporate environment, to really maximize and fulfill the potential of that small square of paper, for a couple of reasons:

No matter what somebody tells you, your business card is your most valuable networking asset.

Because people always receive your card after meeting you face to face; a compelling card is the key to continuing that relationship, after you’ve parted.

If somebody is shopping around for whatever service or product your company offers, obviously they aren’t going to make that decision based on business card design, but your card will remind them of your personality, your warmth, your professionalism and your drive.

Similarly, when someone is seeking a job and interviewing for a handful of positions at different companies, they will hearken back, not only to what your company has to offer, but to what you as an individual are like; which must be relayed through your business card.

So most of all, remember that even more than a Resume’, the business card is a representation of who you are, and why you’re important. That being said make sure to do something that’s fun, to the point and memorable, like SheBytes’ intern Jesse’s brand new card below:

Spring Cleaning –you hear about it everywhere during the April and May months. But what are the best gadgets and technology to make it a breeze? I’ve got your guide to getting uncluttered!

1. Neat Receipts 4.0: Neat Receipts is a mobile scanner and digital filing system that helps you manage all of your business and personal paperwork on your computer. I use it for scanning in important statements, business cards, as well as receipts. It helps me go paperless ($184.99 on Amazon).

2. Shredders: Once important files are scanned, you’ll want to make sure the physical documents are destroyed safely with a shredder (identity theft is a scary thing). When buying a shredder, keep in mind the simplicity of having one with a wastebasket, like the one pictured below; it makes cleanup a breeze. Personally, I have the Fellowes Powershred DS-1 and I think it works great for the price ($122 on Amazon).

3. Backup storage: Since you’ll be storing important scanned documents on your PC, you should make sure you have a back-up copy of your data in case you encounter a casualty on your machine. Ideally, if storing personal data, you’re best bet is to back up to an external hard drive or thumb drive. Be consistent about your backup schedule to be certain you have your latest data set, just in case! If you want to back-up online, I recommend going with Carbonite. For a flat fee of $59 per year, Carbonite provides an automatic online backup of your data using software you install on your PC or Mac. Although Carbonite states your data is private, I wouldn’t recommend storing any financial and or personal documents with the service. For everything else, it’ll work just fine and it’s a great price. Carbonite is offering a FREE 15 day, risk-free trial. No credit card required.
